Excerpt from Baily's Magazine of Sports and Pastimes, Vol. 74: July to December, 1900 One of the toughest contests I ever saw in the ring took place on a bitter December morning many years ago, near Mugdock old castle, a few miles from Glasgow. I acted then as representative of the Sportsman, edited by the late Mr. Thomas Wilson Reid, and had to play the part of referee and stake-holder. The money having been sent to the Sportsman office, I was furnished with a cheque for the amount, I think 5 50 in all, a blank space being left for the name of the winner.
